Seaweed, iodine, and is that cherry or a particularly rind-y orange? Quite drinkable if you forgive the slightly medicinal taste on the tip of the tongue, which actually becomes larger as time passes. You can grow to actually like that medicine bite, which can be quite overwhelming if it's not chased. Wish the fruit came a little more forward. In fact, if you take a small mouthful -- and not just a tip-of-tongue nip -- it's a far better experience. Not my first choice in a single malt, and not my second, either, but not a bad third option.
